Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006045857A1] The invention relates to a process and reagent for the treatment of industrial wastewater. The invention is characterised in that a partially-thermally-regenerable coagulation/adsorption reagent is added to the coagulation reactor, such that water which is at least 99 % free of organic matter can be obtained using a process in which the organic matter is coagulated/adsorbed directly in a single step without the need for lamellar or static decanters. According to the invention, the sludge is separated using ultrafiltration membrane processes at a flow rate of between 90 and 95 % in relation to the inflow and without the need for added polyelectrolytes. In this way, the water is then optimal for reuse in industrial processes. The invention also enables the direct recycling of sludge from part of the rejects, with the resulting reduction in infrastructure such as pipes, pumps, civil engineering and valve systems, as well as a reduction in reactor size, energy consumption, etc. The inventive method is suitable for industrial water for oil removal, paint kiosks, reactor cleaning, etc., i.e. water that is loaded with organic compounds, such as detergents, pigments, dyes, softeners, solvents, hydrocarbons, alcohols, etc.
